Sweeping

Hey there, this is a calm Tuesday morning and I'd like to gather my thoughts before I head out.

I noticed that I can imagine a flickering fire flame when it comes to how my mind jumps around. In the morning my mind is hyperactive, but my body is most definitely not. During yoga practice last week I visualized the flame and how I can turn it still and change it's color and kind. This is a good tool for me I think.

Today it's definitely jumping around. Maybe this is why I turn to knitting these days, it keeps me in repetition and my mind just barely attending to it.

I've been doing a 'supermarket diet' -- a very balanced, healthy meal plan with readily available food from the supermarket. The recipes are insane and the quality of my meals has made leaps and bound upwards (plus I lost 5 pounds), but now at week 3, I don't have a set menu to follow and I am trailing a bit behind. There has been a dishwasher accident (where I fell on it and broke its door -- it was open), and I have mountains of dishes to make. This is slowing me down.

I must leave now but lo and behold, I am doing ok and trailing up, I think.

Good things:
Nice meals
Knitting gifts and doing the online knit-along
Shopping books and bags
A friendly office space
A respite at work
February sweeping by

Belle journée dans le nord incluant du ski sur des pentes douces, je les sens encore. Ça enjolive le temps. Le spa ensuite, le motel, la longue route en voiture. Tout ce que j'aime.

Je vais savoir

Je me demande s'il y a du sens ou du mal à écouter buddha en buvant du vin. Vous croyez?

Inspiration du moment

J'ai découvert Houzz.com dernièrement et depuis ce temps, je n'ai aucun problème d'inspiration pour mon condo, qui est toujours en mode 'fonctionnel mais sans personnalité', sauf pour le petit désordre qui est ma signature. Ils montrent même des scènes de paysage grec et de jardins du monde aujourd'hui, qui sans être des idées déco, me réjouissent toute autant et je rêve d'un petit voyage secret.

Je suis aussi inspirée par le yoga, qui me donne aussi envie de faire un voyage du autre type. Je pense que je peux prendre cette voix plutôt que de voir un psy, c'est efficace et beaucoup plus naturel et facile.

Voilà pour le moment. Pour mon blogue, mon blogue futur, j'essaie de tendre un filet sur le sol. Un jour il s'y déposera je crois bien.

Hey there - I'm fine. I'm still here, I'll be back. I've restarted yoga, am knitting a bit, am tired now. Job got better, happier, still uber demanding I think. Nothing else is up. It's winter, I sleep and rest when I can.

Amourx.
